ABOUT THIS ALBUM

"This CD would sit comfortably alongside the strongest material Windham Hill and Narada have to offer. Guys, your spouse/girlfriend/significant other will love it. Music with a heart." – Phil Derby, Expose' Magazine

Listen to Transitions. Kent Heckaman is a talented instrumental composer, producer, and musician from Indiana. Acoustic piano forms the backbone of this emotional instrumental ensemble of music on Kent's first debut - Transitions. However, the 7-foot grand piano is rarely tracked solo.

Really Listen to Transitions. Kent's talent lies in his magical combination of instrumentation, featuring world class musicians from around the world on cello, guitar, female vocals, percussion, and more. This truly original music was tracked in some of the finest recording studios in the world, and combines both serious yet engaging melodies...pure and simple, this music has depth.

Experience Transitions. If you are a fan of artists on Windham Hill, ECM or Hearts of Space, you will certainly be moved while listening to Transitions. Put the kids to bed, light the candles, and enjoy!

This CD has become one of my all-time favorites! The arrangements are beautiful and the music is perfect for most occasions like dining, relaxing, sharing wine by the fireplace with someone special, etc. I only wish Kent would produce another CD! I am already waiting for it.

This is as good an album as I knew it would be, from the moment I heard "Souls United" on Sirius satellite radio to the end of the cd, I love all of the songs on this one. It has the ability to evoke memories of rainy days sitting by the fire with a cup of hot cocoa, to driving your car through forests on autumn days, you're gonna love this one!!

This CD has become my meditation and relaxation before I go to bed. The weaving of instrumental complexities makes this CD feel like a warm quilt surrounding you on a cold winter night. I just love it!

I very much like the cd and it sounds like it was made with a lot of love! It has great compositions, very subtile melodies and beautiful arrangements. Smooth in the background while having a glass of wine and some conversation, but also definitly worth listening to and enjoying every detail of music!
